The Department is a leader in providing rigorous and industry-relevant education in areas such as information security, computer networks, computer information systems, financial informatics, digital forensics, and health informatics. Courses are offered in flexible face-to-face, blended and online formats. It offers the acclaimed Boston University online Masters in Computer Information Systems program, ranked as the 8th best online IT program by US News & World Report 2021. The department believes that the cultural and social diversity of our faculty, staff, and students is vitally important to the distinction and excellence of our research and academic programs. To that end, we are especially eager to have colleagues who support our institutional commitment to ensuring BU is inclusive, equitable, and diverse join our ranks.

Qualifications: The successful candidates must hold a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in Computer Science or a related field, and have a demonstrated successful teaching and research record.

Responsibilities: Faculty duties include teaching up to six courses at the graduate and undergraduate levels per academic year, including blended and online courses, conducting active research, participating in course and curriculum development, and mentoring part-time faculty and students, as well as providing service to the department, college and the university. These are both full-time, non-tenure track appointments at the rank of Assistant Professor, each with a 2-5 year renewable contract.  

The faculty positions offer significant opportunity for interdisciplinary and collaborative scholarly work, including research and curriculum development within Metropolitan College and Boston University, as well as the greater Boston area.
